I got the car dropped off to have the front frame rails, aprons, etc replaced. Here it was loaded up on the UHaul, with the front clip off of the donor car behind it lol.




Also made a couple of side trips while I was dropping the car off. Picked up a gas tank that already had a sump installed.














I also swapped my 4L60E that I bought with the 5.3L for a "built" TH350 with all Coan internals and reverse manual valve body



He also tossed in the B&M Pro-Stick shifter that was already setup for the reverse pattern.

You talking about the pickup that's in the tank I bought? Not sure. Might just leave it in for my return line.

Which pump? The Magnafuel one I had in the car? Already sold it and the regulator.

Still waiting to get the car back from having the frame rails replaced. I did pick up a set of 243's, a MS3 cam, and a Holley 750DP.







Also picked up some exhaust that Matt(1bad03snake) pulled off of his car when he went turbo. 3" all the way back, 2-chamber Flowmasters and dumps.

Its still over in Houston having the new front clip welded on. With the holidays, not much got done on it. I've been slammed with work anyway, so it would just be sitting here anyway lol. I'm leaving town for a week or so, should be done when I get back.

Still been slammed with work. Got a little time to work on it Friday. Ran my 1/0 battery cable from the front back to the trunk and got my Moroso battery box mounted, but forgot to take pictures lol. I need to get my battery switch and push/pull handle ordered to finish the battery relocation up. Went and picked up the paint that matches the car and got everything under the hood painted with a couple of coats. Definitely looks a lot better.
